Jürgen Brähmer was champion and pulled out of the fight due to an injury. Clev then got promoted.

Calazghe vs Veit - KO'd him in a round and then somehow for some reason no-one knows and no-one will be able to tell me, he was made mandatory for Calazghe's title and Joe KO'd him again - this time in five rounds - in Kiel Germany if I remember rightly, what a load of bullshit that was.

Anyway, Calazghe vs Veit - worst title fight on these shores ever... official.

Herbie Hide's 2nd reign of terror takes some beating: won the title against the ghost of Tucker, then Reed and Fischer as defences.
